## 🚀 WHEN TO USE THIS GUIDE
|
|
|
|
**Before generating ANY terrain/environment asset:**
|
|
1. Check which biome it belongs to
|
|
2. Load the biome reference image
|
|
3. Extract color palette from reference
|
|
4. Match outline thickness (5px)
|
|
5. Match shading style (flat cel)
|
|
6. Generate with explicit reference to biome guide
|
|
|
|
**Example prompt:**
|
|
```
|
|
Desert terrain tile. EXACT Style 32 matching /references/biomes/desert/:
|
|
THICK 5px BLACK OUTLINES, flat cel shading, sandy yellow (#EDC9AF),
|
|
rocks (#CD853F), cacti visible, transparent background,
|
|
Cult of the Lamb aesthetic.
|
|
```
|

|
|
|
|
**STATUS:** Awaiting reference images for each biome
|
|
**PRIORITY:** HIGH - needed before generating any of 27 town variants
|
|
**NEXT STEP:** Generate master reference for at least 3 core biomes (Winter, Desert, Forest)
